Next Generation Monitoring and Detection - Smart Cities Tech

Fotech has launched two next-generation Helios DAS systems at the International Pipeline Expo in Calgary, Canada, between 27 and 29 September 2022. The new Helios DAS TL4 (single-channel) and the Helios DAS TX4 (dual-channel) interrogators deliver lower false alarm rates and enhanced monitoring and incident detection. They incorporate new machine learning capabilities, which allows a faster, cost effective and more systematic deployment of solutions in long linear assets such, as pipelines and perimeters. Pedro Barbosa, Senior Product Manager at Fotech, says, "The new Helios DAS TL4 and Helios DAS TX4 interrogators take monitoring of pipelines, critical infrastructure and perimeters to the next level. The machine learning that is built into them means they deliver exceptional accuracy with a much-reduced false alarm rate. As a result, users have extremely high confidence in alarms, and don't waste precious time or resource investigating false alarms."
